Some rigidity theorems for Finsler manifolds of sectional flag curvature

Similarity:

In this paper we study some rigidity properties for Finsler manifolds of sectional flag curvature. We prove that any Landsberg manifold of non-zero sectional flag curvature and any closed Finsler manifold of negative sectional flag curvature must be Riemannian.

Doubly warped product Finsler manifolds with some non-Riemannian curvature properties

Similarity:

We consider doubly warped product (DWP) Finsler manifolds with some non-Riemannian curvature properties. First, we study Berwald and isotropic mean Berwald DWP-Finsler manifolds. Then we prove that every proper Douglas DWP-Finsler manifold is Riemannian. We show that a proper DWP-manifold is Landsbergian if and only if it is Berwaldian. Then we prove that every relatively isotropic Landsberg DWP-manifold is a Landsberg manifold. We show that a relatively isotropic mean Landsberg warped...

Volume comparison theorem for tubular neighborhoods of submanifolds in Finsler geometry and its applications

Bing-Ye Wu (2014)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We consider the distance to compact submanifolds and study volume comparison for tubular neighborhoods of compact submanifolds. As applications, we obtain a lower bound for the length of a closed geodesic of a compact Finsler manifold. When the Finsler metric is reversible, we also provide a lower bound of the injectivity radius. Our results are Finsler versions of Heintze-Karcher's and Cheeger's results for Riemannian manifolds.
